Traditionally, release-team has been the collection of people who have volunteered to build, and smoke-test OpenAFS on the various platforms that we aim to provide binaries for at the time of release. Their involvement in release planning has pretty much been limited to Derrick saying "please build this" and them saying "it works". Recently, however, folk on release-team have been saying "it doesn't work", which is why they perhaps have more knowledge of the 1.6.1 process than those who aren't building packages. I've been arguing for a while that OpenAFS should switch to date based feature freezes - nothing else really makes sense for a project with no resources. However, doing this effectively would mean that we have to stop pulling new features in midway through a set of pre-releases.
